I'm backing up a volume on a Gluster four node pool (distributed, replicated 
with replica count 2) using Bareos 16.2.4 on it's own server.  The backup is 
put on another Gluster volume.

The initial full backup worked (took 22 hours).  I then added a test file and 
the incremental worked.  A day or so later I copied files from a windows 
machine to the Gluster volume.  The Gluster volume is also shared via Samba 4.  
The files and directories were added to the volume.

I then ran an incremental and only the test file was found.  I deleted the test 
file and when I run an incremental or differential backup the test file is 
still listed as new.  I delete the test file and get the same results.  If I 
run the bareos glusterfind wrapper specifying a differential backup and since 
the last full backup the only file found is the test file which no longer 
exists.  None of the additional files show up but they are in the volume and 
can be listed.

If I go to the Gluster server that Bareos runs the script on and run the 
glusterfind directly with this command I still get only the test file listed.

glusterfind query  --since-time=1495843200 dev-projects dev-projects.out

If I run find on the volume to get all files since that date and time all the 
new files are listed.

It appears that somewhere, somehow gluster doesn't really walk the tree but is 
pulling the information out of it's hat from somewhere.  I've stopped and 
started the volume, restarted gluster on all nodes and the query still returns 
the non-existent file as the ONLY file.

I'm at a loss to explain this.  I've gone through the glusterfind document on 
the gluster site but didn't find anything that might explain this behavior.   
Any suggestions are welcome.
